National Guard (In Federal Status) and Reserve Mobilized as of November 28, 2007

This week the Marine Corps and Coast Guard announced an increase, while the Army and Navy announced a decrease. The Air Force number remained the same. The net collective result is 311 fewer reservists mobilized than last week.

At any given time, services may mobilize some units and individuals while demobilizing others, making it possible for these figures to either increase or decrease. The total number currently on active duty in support of the partial mobilization of the Army National Guard and Army Reserve is 70,859; Navy Reserve, 5,467; Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve, 7,243; Marine Corps Reserve, 7,310; and the Coast Guard Reserve, 361. This brings the total National Guard and Reserve personnel who have been mobilized to 91,240, including both units and individual augmentees.
